So actually I'm coming to the conclusion that 1% fixed rate may be better for all...
For "all" as long as "all" = "trying to get the most out of my 0.5 to 5 BTC, at the expense of everyone else, the site first and foremost because fuck it, much like the US it's just something cool someone else made that I'm here to leech off and shit on". Nice, but this would be the reason listening to "all" the people is a bad idea.
There are indeed. Do we fill 1% of everyone's capital before allocating the remaining risk to those prepared to accept it (1), or do we allocate the risk in proportion to the amount people are willing to risk (2)?
It strikes me that (2) results in those sensible enough to use a sane bankroll management strategy getting very little action as the wild "risk it all" guys soak up nearly everything.
You have to offer the same exact deal to all investors and to each and every Bitcoin of each investor's investment or else you're just working as a sort of reallocation engine. Something our born-and-brought-up-on-welfare friends are of course more than keen to see you implement, at your own expense. Since you're only expending your own future for their present day minor benefit it's not "really" a cost to you, is it?
Incidentally this is why I love Bitcoin: it exposes the nature of people in a mathematically clear, indisputable way.
And, to dooglus - I'm sorry MPOE had to come and shit in your thread, although I suppose it's to be expected by now. I'll try to leave well enough alone, but there's just something about him/her that grates me to the point that I can't help myself sometimes. Sorry for my part in feeding his/her trolling, at any rate.
This would be your being an idiot, that grates you. Get rid of it already.
